#LaurenceFox will probably sue for libel if called the lowest form of scum known to humanity. But truth is a complete defence in libel claims.

"This mixture of whodunnit, conspiracy thriller and dystopia makes for a gripping read — and one with some thought-provoking things to say about free will and justice." Thank you to The Morning Star for an excellent review of #Freebourne #booksky #authorsky #thriller #scifi #crimefiction #novel

Diving into a world of mystery and moral dilemmas can be so exhilarating! Freebourne's blend of suspense and thought-provoking themes truly captures the essence of what it means to seek justice. 📚✨ #booksky #thriller #scifi

Well we can see what barbarism looks like. Ugly, cruel, fuelled by hate and division - blame the immigrants and forget about the billionaires profiteering as society tears itself apart. Let's give socialism a chance. Congratulations @ZohranKMamdani.bsky.social #ZohranMamdani #NewYork

One week to go until Freebourne is released and it's neck and neck with the new Killing Eve in the charts! "I've never been so shocked while reading a book in my life." - nathan_reads_all, Bookstagram

Given his public image, however, I am confident #NigelFarage can in fact organise a piss up in a brewery.

Had an awesome time chatting with the @beardedbookbeast.bsky.social today. Thank you for having me on your show to talk about my #novel #Freebourne, and why I love #allotment plots and hate #JJAbrams' plots. #booksky #authorsky #thriller #scifi #sciencefiction

I'll be live with the Bearded Book Beast at 3pm UK time today. youtube.com/live/OrGf69i...

Proud to be once again standing to represent #Isleworth alongside my fantastic colleagues Cllr Sue Sampson and Cllr John Stroud-Turp. It has been the privilege of a lifetime to serve Isleworth's residents these last years and we hope to continue working hard for our constituents.

My London book launch at ANIMA in Brentford on October 28 is now sold out. Thank you to everyone who booked their spot, really looking forward to seeing everyone there. There are still four tickets remaining for my Beccles book launch on November 3. www.ticketsource.co.uk/whats-on/bec...

As a teenager, the 11 O'Clock Show, which catapulted Ricky Gervais and Ali G to stardom, was one of my favourite things on TV. As you can imagine, I was pretty chuffed to get an endorsement for my debut novel from Daisy Donovan! Freebourne is available here www.collectiveinkbooks.com/clk.html?c=6...

When an oppressor does not see the oppressed as human.

Where other councils have closed #libraries in the face of #austerity, I'm proud that not only has Hounslow kept all our libraries open, we're enhancing them into Community Hubs where residents can come and get vital advice and services. And borrow a book. The first new hub opened yesterday.

#Freebourne released today on Kindle! If you want to read it before the paperback comes out on October 28, hit the link below. amzn.eu/d/8IFYVG0 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Cleverly written, twisty, and deeply immersing." Naomi Ackerman, #Goodreads #authorsky #booksky #thriller #scifi #murdermystery

For #WorldMentalHealthDay I joined #BrentfordFC in launching a new initiative to remind people at their lonliest they have someone to talk to. My own cousin, Stephen, died by suicide some years ago, and I've always thought how important it is to know there are people to listen.

It's on www.amazon.co.uk/Freebourne-N..., I'm looking forward to reading it!

I never met my grandmother, Mumtaz Shirin. Sadly she passed away before I was born. But she was a pioneer of Urdu literature in the then newborn nation of Pakistan, and it's wonderful to hear how fondly she's still remembered by journalists. It turns out I'm a nepobaby in Pakistan!

Generations of keeping the bloodline pure does take its toll.

In fairness to #KemiBadenoch, about the one sensible thing she's said is that #stampduty is actually a bad tax. But what do you replace it with? How about a #wealthtax? Imagine the reaction. If this is going to be your last conference as #Tory leader, you might as well go down in a blaze of glory.

Another lovely five star review for #Freebourne on #NetGalley. Not long to go now. The novel is out on October 28. Excited! Currently discounted for pre-order on Amazon: amzn.eu/d/hO7GtKf #booksky #authorsky #thriller #scifi #novel #murdermystery

Lovely piece in the Chiswick Calendar on my London book launch. Read the article here and come along to the launch, there are only a few spots left: chiswickcalendar.co.uk/brentford-co...

Chances are they were just hiding because everyone thinks you're a total bell.

Well they made a right Fudge out of that.

Lovely review of Freebourne from a Goodreads giveaway winner. Glad you enjoyed it Jamie! Thank you for reading. Freebourne is out on October 28 and you can get your pre-order in now: www.collectiveinkbooks.com/clk.html?c=6...

I think I probably had second dinner here in the early hours most days in my first year. The healthy habits of the next generation have a lot to answer for. RIP Gardies.

I spoke to The Wire on my debut novel Freebourne, how politics has influenced my work, why I chose a murder mystery as the ideal vehicle to smuggle philosophical themes, and the legacy of my writer grandmother. m.thewire.in/article/books/a-murder-mystery-set-in-a-future-with-ai-looming-over-it

Now, more than ever, Londoners from all communities must stand together, show allyship to our Jewish friends and neighbours, and be united in our rejection of hatred.

My thoughts are with everyone affected by the attack in Greater Manchester today.

Hounslow Council Leader Cllr @shansview.bsky.social Rajawat has issued a statement following the incident at Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue in Greater Manchester today: www.hounslow.gov.uk/news/article... (1/5)
